Joining the Squares

Layout: Block all squares to 8.5 x 8.5 in. Lay them out right side up in 9 rows of 7 squares. (63 squares)
Horizontal seams (make 8): Place Row 1 on Row 2 with wrong sides together, so the bottom edges of Row 1 meet the top edges of Row 2. Join cream with sl st through both corner ch-2 spaces of the first pair. Ch 1, sc in the same corner spaces. Sc through both loops of both squares in each of the next 33 stitches, then sc in the next pair of corner spaces. *Ch 1, sc in the corner spaces of the next pair, sc in each of the next 33 stitches, sc in the next pair of corner spaces; repeat from * across all 7 pairs. Fasten off. Repeat for each pair of neighboring rows. (245 sc + 6 ch-1 per seam (35 per square))
Vertical seams (make 6): The horizontal seams create 7 columns of 9 squares. Place two neighboring columns wrong sides together and seam exactly as above, working 35 sc per pair of squares and ch 1 over each horizontal seam where four squares meet. Repeat until all 7 columns are joined. (315 sc + 8 ch-1 per seam (35 per square))

Finishing

Final blocking: Lay the bedspread flat and lightly steam the border so the lace opens and the scallops lie flat. Do not press the puffs. (1 finished bedspread)

Important notes

Tip: This is an original pattern inspired by the photo. Hidden construction details, yarn weight, and dimensions are interpreted from the image, and the pattern has not been physically test-crocheted.
Tip: Abbreviations (US terms): ch = chain, sc = single crochet, hdc = half double crochet, dc = double crochet, sl st = slip stitch, MR = magic ring.
Tip: The ch-3 at the start of dc rounds counts as a dc. The ch 1 at the start of sc rounds and the ch 2 before a first puff do not count as stitches.
Tip: Work all rounds with the right side facing; do not turn.
Tip: Square stitch counts do not include the corner ch-2 spaces.
Tip: Yarn amounts are estimates based on the stated gauge. Puff stitches use more yarn than standard stitches, so tension affects yardage.

Pattern FAQ

How do I make it fit a different bed?

Measure the top of your mattress and divide by 8.5 in to find how many squares you need in each direction. A twin top is about 5 x 9 squares and a king top is about 9 x 9 squares. The lace border adds about 8 in on every side.

How do I work Border Round 2 for a different size?

Each square edge gives 35 stitches in Border Round 1, which is exactly 7 loops. Work the bracketed repeat 7 times for every square along that edge, then make one corner loop at each corner.

My border is ruffling or cupping. What should I do?

Ruffling usually means extra loops or chains that are too long; cupping usually means tight chains or missed corner increases. Check your loop count against each round and try ch 4 or ch 6 to adjust the drape.

Can I use cotton yarn?

Yes, but cotton makes a much heavier bedspread and the puffs will look flatter. A soft acrylic or cotton-acrylic blend keeps the puffs plump and the bedspread easier to wash.

How should I wash it?

Follow the care label on your yarn. Most acrylic and blend yarns can be machine washed on a gentle cycle in cool water. Dry flat or tumble dry on low and reshape the border while damp.
